NOTES FOR USERS IN THE U.K. AND IRELAND
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded)
plug incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI
orASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as
above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug
without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compat-
ible with the plug supplied, cut-off the mains plug and fit an appropriate
type.
DANGER:
The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug
destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere
into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code:
Blue : Neutral
Brown : Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal
which is marked N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug termi-
nal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth
terminal in your three pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover, make sure that:
If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that
removed from the cut-off plug.
The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead and not
simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULTA QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Precautions
"General !No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the appa-
ratus.
!Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
!The apparatus is designed for use in moderate climate.
!This unit should only be used within the range of 5°C - 35°C (41°F - 95°F).
Warning:
The voltage used must be the same as that specified by this unit. Using this product
with a higher voltage other than that specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or
other types of accident, causing damage. SHARP will not be held responsible for any
damage resulting from the use of this unit with a voltage other than that specified.
"Volume control
It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels, which occurs whilst turning the
unit on with the volume control setting up high, or whilst continually listening at high
volumes.
Copy Protection:
This unit supports Macrovision copy protection.
On DVD discs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of the DVD disc are
copied using a VCR, the copy protection code prevents the videotape copy from play-
ing normally.
!Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated area and that
there is at least 10 cm of free space along the sides and back. There must also be
a minimum of 20 cm of free space on the top of the unit.
!Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibra-
tion.
!Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong mag-
netic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/
electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles,
etc.) which generate electrical noise.
!Do not place anything on the unit.
!Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) or to
extremely low temperatures.
!If the unit does not work properly, unplug and plug it in again. Then turn on the unit.
!In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safe-
ty.
!Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it
from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage
internal wires.
!Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result
in electric shock. Refer internal service to your lo-
cal SHARP service facility.
!The ventilation openings should not be impeded by
covering them with items, such as newspapers, table-
cloths, curtains, etc.
